Thanks for your encouragement.

I'm surprised no one jumped on me for keeping my recovery to myself. Is everyone the same as me in thinking that that is something best kept to oneself while dating?

Should we only date people who also don't' drink?

Only date other recovering (recovered) alcoholics?

Anybody have any thoughts on that one?

So if you are dating a "normie." How do you tell someone you are abstaining from alcohol because you can't just have a nice glass of wine? One glass of wine will be the bottle. Then it will be as much scotch as I can put down. Then I'll wake up and wait until I feel good enough to do it again.

You know after 7 months sober I think of that type of "need" and shake my head. INSANE! INSANE. Who does that? oh yeah I do...lol.
